King Charles shared a video of the couple’s visit with a statement noting, “The Duke, and Duchess of Edinburgh visited the National Spinal Injuries Centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital for its 80th anniversary and neighbouring @stokemandevillestadium this week, the birthplace of the Paralympics.”

It further added, “The Duke, Patron of the @paralympicsgb_official, and The Duchess met staff and patients undergoing rehabilitation sessions in the Upper Limb Lab and visited @horatiosgarden, which nurtures the well-being of people after spinal injuries.”

Charles in his statement also revealed that, “The Duchess was also announced as the new Patron of @wheelpower_official, the national charity for wheelchair sports, taking over from The King when he was Prince of Wales.”
